So, it's August and in Scotland, many schools are set to return in mid-month. 

You have just managed to get into a rhythm of day-to-day life, and we need to change again.  

So here we go!

Never mind the expense of new uniform, shoes bags, lunch boxes and water bottles. It’s the challenge of getting these just right that causes so much stress.
